Configuring the Data Link Layer Protocol for E1, T1, and Serial Interfaces
1.
From the Frame Relay Configuration window, enter a string of text up
to 80 characters in the Description box if you want to record information
about the WAN connection. This information will be displayed in the
running-config.
2.
Select the Enabled box to activate the interface.
3.
Use the pull-down menu to select the Link Management Protocol that
your Frame Relay service provider is using:
•
ansi (Annex D)
•
cisco (Group of Four)
•
none
•
q933a (Annex A)
•
Auto
The default setting is ansi.
4.
Weighted Fair Queuing (WFQ) is enabled by default. If you do not want
the interface to use WFQ, check the box to deselect it. For more informa-
tion about WFQ, see "Configuring WFQ" on page 16-59 in Chapter 16:
Using the Web Browser Interface for Advanced Configuration Tasks of
the Advanced Management and Configuration Guide.
5.
Use the pull-down menu to select the Frame Relay's signaling role:
•
If this interface is acting as Data Terminal Equipment, select Connect
to a switch (DTE). For most environments, you will select this setting.
•
If this device is acting as Data Communications Equipment, select Act
like a switch (DCE).
•
If this Frame Relay interface will act as both DTE and DCE, select
Both.
6.
Verify that the Frame Relay interface is bound to the correct physical
interface. The Physical Interface field displays the interface <slot>/
<port> that is connected to the logical Frame Relay interface that you are
configuring.
7.
If you have not set a QoS Policy, this Frame Relay interface will display
None for its QoS policy. For instructions on setting a QoS policy, see
"Configuring Quality of Service" on page 16-58 of Chapter 16: Using the
Web Browser Interface for Advanced Configuration Tasks in the
Advanced Management and Configuration Guide.
8.
Click Apply to activate the settings.
